Inclusive Practice Hub
Searchable case studies on inclusive practice
https://www.wholeschoolsend.org.uk/page/inclusive-practice-hub
“The Inclusive Practice Hub brings together research, case studies and practical strategies for improving SEND provision – in the classroom and across whole-school planning. Whether you’re reviewing what’s in place or exploring next steps, you’ll find clear, evidence-based guidance to support action and impact.”
Designed as a living library of practitioner-led case studies from schools and colleges, the Inclusive Practice Hub enables you to explore detailed examples showing how inclusive practice has been implemented, developed, and sustained in real settings.
You can use the search and filters to explore the Hub, for example:
- Looking to improve attendance? Filter by “Increased attendance” to see how others have approached this.
- Locusing on supporting reading across the curriculum in a secondary setting? Search for “reading” and filter by phase to find examples of practice in this area.
The Hub will continue to grow over time, with new case studies added to reflect practice across the sector.

DfE statistics on pupils with SEN document the year-on-year increase in the number of pupils with special educational needs.
